The K Constantinople Crashes feature a newer style hammering technique, an additional pin lathe on the top and bottom, and a vintage-style cup for the bell. These features allow the cymbal to maintain the dark, expressive quality of the original K Constantinople line sought by drummers all over the world and incorporate even more dark overtones and nuances than ever before. The pin lathe serves as an additional tonal groove, adding to the overall complexity of the sound produced, and enhancing the visual appearance of these cymbals with a vintage look similar to earlier K's from the 60's. Dark, expressive, complex sound featuring more dark overtones and nuance than ever Newer-style hammering technique Additional pin lathe on top and bottom Vintage style cup for the bell Vintage look of earlier K's from the '60s

The Zildjian 18" K Constantinople Crash is a truly unique entry in the company's families of cymbals in that each of these models is completely hand lathed and hammered by master craftsmen for one of the most faithful reproductions of Zildjian's Turkish roots. Dark and atmospheric, the smooth response and dry overtones found here are loved by jazz drummers, but the Constantinople's influence doesn't stop there: these are now found everywhere from indie to pop to country.
